Please provide live scores here from Astro

[wl2172]

Anyone watching live on Astro kind enough to post scores here?

[jwcalvin]

Yes, please do provide us with info regarding the semifinal matches. It's really sad that we can't even get to watch the semifinal matches live on our local television channels.Hopefully we get to watch the finals tomorrow but I doubt that will happen.Now we can only depending on reports via news and newspapers. :mad:

[jaclyn]

chen hong leading

[mirrura]

in this second set, lee chong wei is a bit erratic. Keep on sending the shuttle out at the back of the court. Chen Hong is looking more and more confident now. 11-4 now

[jaclyn]

rubber match..
15-5
chong wei make a lot mistake

[wl2172]

I still think Chong Wei can win if he collects himself.

[mirrura]

I still think Chong Wei can win if he collects himself.

Yes, I still have faith in him in the rubber set. He should play agressively if he wants to win Chen Hong coz Chen Hong's speed was superb in the second set.
Now is the third set. 0-0

[jaclyn]

4-1.
chong wei comming back......
he can do it.,

[wl2172]

Thats great!!!

I know he can do it.

[mirrura]

I just saw an interesting rally! Chong Wei won his serve back by smashing 4-5 times in a row but Chen hong saved that much as well from left to right and right to left and in the end, Chen Hong had to give up by lifting the shuttle up right at the net.
7-1 now for lee chong wei

[jaclyn]

he very giving me heart attack lar(just now the rely)....
now 7-1 leading

[chinadoll]

hmmm.... i wish i get to watch the tournaments live...... or at least on tv

[jaclyn]

5-7now.
haiya.....
chong wei come on

[mirrura]

Changing court now.
8-5, Chong Wei still leading

[mirrura]

It's 13-6 now.
There has been some problem with the linesmen though. Chen Hong disputed a few calls (3) already.

[Fook90]

Anyone can tell me whether there will be broadcast on RTM 1 or 2. I am really envious of those who have Astro at home. In Singapore, I have yet to catch any live broadcast yet.

[chinadoll]

It's 13-6 now.
There has been some problem with the linesmen though. Chen Hong disputed a few calls (3) already.what do you mean?
are the line judges bias? :eek:

[jaclyn]

:D year chong wei win 15-6

[mirrura]

Cheers for all Malaysian :) LCW has just won 15-6 in the 3rd set!!~~

[mirrura]

what do you mean?
are the line judges bias? :eek:

linesmen, actually. I'm not really that sure. But there were 3 times about the ins and outs of the shuttle, all on LCW's side. The TV (repeat) didn't really show it clearly for us to see.

[Fook90]

Cheers for all Malaysian :) LCW has just won 15-6 in the 3rd set!!~~

Congrats to Lee Chong Wei. He manage to get into the final again !!! Now who's playing ? I hope it's a doubles though. Btw could you tell us more about the dispute with the linesman ?

[chinadoll]

linesmen, actually. I'm not really that sure. But there were 3 times about the ins and outs of the shuttle, all on LCW's side. The TV (repeat) didn't really show it clearly for us to see.oh ok linesmen :p
so chen hong lost? wonder how's Xia Xuanze's match?

i supposed now is playing WD?
keep us updated... thanks jaclyn & mirrura :)

[jwcalvin]

I've just watched news from all the tv channels..RTM 1 n 2 broadcast yesterday's winning instead of what is happening now..It seems that RTM is lagging behind..and TV3 don't even bother to show it..looks like the heat of football fever catches on more than our local front.
But from the news shown in RTM, Chong Wei said that Chen Hong was not in his utmost performance, which explains his lost today.Congrats to CW~ ;)
Hopefully there will be a broadcast tomorrow..

[jaclyn]

now showing women double.
zhang n her parthner vs korea....
5-3 korean leading

[wl2172]

Congratulations to Chong Wei.

People should not take any credit away from him as according to my dad who watched it live, he was better then Chen Hong. The line calls were close, but Chong Wei nullified Chen Hong's attacks by keeping everything tight. Chong Wei is also extremely deceptive.

[jeicegreen]

now showing women double.
zhang n her parthner vs korea....

choong-lee is making less mistake now

[mirrura]

That's amazing to see that the junior pair, Tan - Ong is showing some great display and are point to point with their seniors. They had some couple of long and exciting rallies...
Now's 12-12

[jaclyn]

17-14....
haha...
finally chong-lee win

[wl2172]

Looks like we may have another good pair emerging apart from KKK. Also, Tan/Ong seems to be very powerful and lethal in attack.

[mirrura]

yup...
everything's over. Choong- Lee won without much sweat in the second round 15-4.
What about the other matches?? There is no news about it so far

[jaclyn]

haha chong-lee win....
15-4.
so happy.
wan wah so handsome.

[FEND.]

mmm.

Only comments bout the pair which lost to Lee W.W and Choong T.F are :
1) service fault, service fault, service fault
2) mishits, mishits, mishits
3) so far and wide they hit all the way to the back.

Other than that. Not bad!! Good game.

hhmm...about the mishits, I realize that the younger pair usually have this mishit whenever the shuttle was sent to their sidelines at their right side and both of them usually have this misunderstanding of who to get the shuttle

[wl2172]

Congrats to Choong/Lee and Lee CW. I hope they will win the titles tomorrow. From what has happened, I don't see why not.

Hahaha Jaclyn, you have a crush on Wan Wah??? There are a few other girls as well that like him :) .

Anyway, thanks to Mirrura and Jaclyn for the updates. It would be great if you could provide the same for us poor souls tomorrow as I don't think there will be any live coverage on RTM1 or 2. I am not in Malaysia and the internet is the only way for me to get info, and also on the internet if RTM1 or 2 has coverage. My dad has also been giving me some information over the phone as he has access to Astro.

Yea...you know, sometimes i wouldn't dare to dream that they can win titles. You know (lah) ...Malaysian style. When we want and expect them to win, they never win, and when we never expect them to win at all, they will win :)

This time will be different. They will win :)

[FEND.]

Doesn't really apply to all malaysian players. Only one I'm sure this applies to everytime is Roslin Hashim. That bugga never wins when we expect (want him to win) but when we expect the bugga to just drop and die on the court, he goes on and owns the other player.

lol.

strange eh?

Just to inform you guys. Lee Chong Wei had an easy first match by winning the first set 15-2 (can't quite remember Park's score). But Chong Wei had every opportunity to smash all the way! Now, in this second set, Park is leading 8-4

[wl2172]

I think Chong Wei has won the first set, but second set is much closer. Come on Chong Wei, you can win it.

Thanks PinYin. Please keep the score coming as Jaclyn can't get reception at the moment due to weather interference.

aiyah... 1.40am. can i do without sleep for one night? ;)

yep, Park is awake now. At least he is trying his best to attack more.
11-12 already.

Chong Wei can do it.

my spy tells me that lee is leading 13-12!

[kwun]

Lee won!

15-12!

[wl2172]

Chong Wei can do it.


I can feel it, Chong Wei is the new Champion. Watch out world!!! :)

[mirrura]

YES!! LEE CHONG WEI WON THE MALAYSIA OPEN title by beating Park Sung Hwan 15-3, 15-12!

[FEND.]

LEE CHONG WEI!! LEE CHONG WEI!!

GOOD FAST GAME!!!

Statistics of both players, both had to play a pair of chinese MS each prior to this match :p:p

LEE CHONG WEI!!!

Too bad the korean guy couldn't stay focused in Kuantan and the 'kampung' crowd!!!

[kwun]

may i point out that almost every Olympic MS qualifiers are present in this tournament except for the Koreans?

[wl2172]

may i point out that almost every Olympic MS qualifiers are present in this tournament except for the Koreans?

Park Sung Hwan is a worthy successor to Korean Singles, he has a bright future ahead as he is only 19.

[kwun]

it will be interesting to see what Li YongBo decides on.

it is unlikely that Bao/Lin/Xia held back anything as their qualification spots is in question. if they played their best and still come out short of a spot in the final, then it will firstly be very worrying and secondly this tournament isn't going to help LiYB decides on anything.

[mirrura]

may i point out that almost every Olympic MS qualifiers are present in this tournament except for the Koreans?

haha...yea, but better don't expect too much from LCW yet. Still too early (i guess) THe Chinese men's players are not really that impressive this time but they will be able to rise in the Olympics :)

[wl2172]

haha...yea, but better don't expect too much from LCW yet. Still too early (i guess) THe Chinese men's players are not really that impressive this time but they will be able to rise in the Olympics :)

You are right Mirrura, but this win should boost his confidence. Lee CW and Hafiz does not fear anyone, and Choon Hann should take note.

[mirrura]

Zhang Jiewen - Yang Wei won 15-7

[kwun]

that's quick! they already finished first set?

[mirrura]

Zhang - Yang is leading 11-5 already. There is something missing in Gao - Huang today.

[mirrura]

WD was quick! ZHang - Huang won it without much sweat 15-7, 15-6

[kwun]

hm... interesting.... the first 3 MD pairs. JR/LP are not playing. Kim/Ha are not playing. Fu/Cai lost in the early rounds.

that leaves the 4th ranked pair Choong/Lee, who are in the finals and have a chance at the winner.

that'll will be a boost to their rankings for sure and thus a boost in their seedings...

[mirrura]

Ok...the first set of MD had just ended. Kinda heart-thumping if you are one any side of the pair.
Msian pair won 15-13.
Actually msian pair was leading 7-0 at first but the Ina pair caught up to lead 8-7 and then Ina attacked more but still not enough to fight the msian pair, thus losing 15-13.

[jaclyn]

hey i'm back!!!
intresting match.
can make me heart attack
2-2

Hi Kwun, I was just looking at the ranking list, and I am wondering if you can answer some questions:
1. If Choong/Lee emerge victorious, does this mean they will surpass Jonas/Lars?
2. Does the Olympics make use of the latest rankings (i.e the one that will take into account the Malaysian Open) to decide the draws, or the previous ranking used to decide qualification?

[wl2172]

If I'm not mistaken, Choong/Lee should be second in the world ranking after Malaysia Open and therefore should get the second seed in the olympics...

The four top seeds should be :
1. Paaske/Rasmussen
2. Choong/Lee
3. Fu/Cai
4. Ha/Kim

OMG people!!! I'm gone from the comp for only half a week and look what has occurred!! I had the dissapointment of hearing about Lin's, Chen's, and Xia's failures on CCTV-5 news!!!!

Good news is Zhang/Gao have a legitimate chance this tourney to take their first in a long while.

GJ to the Malaysians on home soil. Dissapoint for the entire Chinese men's team.

Did you miss me while I was gone, Wilfred??? :D :)

Hello all..

SINGLE: malaysia won (15-3,15-10) *if i'm not mistaken..

In the men's singles, Chong Wei won 15-3 and 15-12, as stated in the news.
And our fellow mate reported that the Malaysian doubles won 15-13 and 15-7.Do read the previous messages for clarification.

I saw the winning badminton clips at the 8pm news over RTM and TV3. It was really short, but I caught a glimpse of singles and the doubles accepting their cheques.For those who missed it can tune in to Nightline at 12 midnite, TV3. ;)

How is this possible, if the list of players going to the Olympics have not been finalized yet?

Well, if that's the case, I am guessing they might come up with a big list of people. So, if someone is not going, the next person will automatically be shifted up in seeds.
